Slip Sliding Jacob-Hamlin Arch

I didn't have the urge to climb on top of Jacob-Hamlin Arch but my son had to see Coyote Canyon from this monolith's vantage point. As he climbed down (right side of pictured Jacob-Hamlin arch) a hand hold broke and he slid down the nose. Watch the slide caught via my iphone:
We had beautiful warm weather backpacking Coyote Canyon Easter week-end 2012.

C.O.Y.O.T.E.

Each letter of Coyote describes our week-end backpacking trip in Coyote Canyon.
C: Calm, no winds. We watched leaves fall to the ground and marveled at the warm weather.
O: Otherworldlyness - utopia may be a better word, where clean water spouts from walls and arches & alcoves are prolific.
Y: Yellow was the color reflecting in Coyote stream from huge fan-like yellow cottonwood leaves that also blanketed our path.
O: Outrageous monolithic rocks we hiked around with outrageous views of Coyote Canyon.
T: Travel time to trailhead from Escalante, 1 hour. Ricki's new big tires helped with the washboard roads.
E: Easy-going conversations and fun games at night (Farkle and Cribbage).
Coyote Canyon is the quintessential canyon in the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Come hike it.
